LASY LASY DRIVER
May 28, 2020

A product over $200+ should NEVER be safe dropped in plain sight! Husband was home, lights on and no actual knock on the door. Disappointed with their service. Also when the driver scans it on board at 230am and scans as "delivered" at 4.16am. The driver just wants to be paid for the days work without actually doing the job properly. Sorry but I will stick to Australia Post, at least my area driver does his job properly.

Sendle lost a parcel that I sent. I placed a complaint and they responded that they don; t know where the parcel is and that I can put a claim for up to $300. I sent them all that they asked for, including invoice and proof of purchase. I only got an email from them saying that in 2 days the claim will be cancelled if I don't respond. I tried replying to that email, then sending various emails to their contact form, but it's been 3 weeks and they didn't bother responding any of them.
They don't list a phone number and now I know why.
Don't use them, they will steal your money and your packages

Atrocious
January 15, 2019

Never even attempted delivery, never left a card. Driver just took it to a local supermarket, Sendle emailed me to tell me where to pick my parcel up.
How they can even justify calling themselves a courier service is beyond me.

Handoff to USPS SLOW!
January 15, 2021

I purchased an item on eBay on 1-1-21, the label was printed on 1-4, and Sendle picked it up 7 days later to hand it off to UPS. Package sat for a week before they picked it up. In short the slow down USPS deliveries.

Good service
July 1, 2023

Generally speaking the service is good. Our main concern is drivers coming at any hour of the day - sometimes 10am when we are not ready for the days collection and sometimes noon or afterwards. There needs to be consistent time we can work towards and noon is best suited to our business. Aramex parcels are unpredictable with drivers not collecting for days until we call or email them.

Hey Organic Instinct! Thank you so much for your feedback It is much appreciated! At the moment, We can't specify an exact pickup time yet. We know that this would be helpful, and we're looking into it.

In the meantime, we suggest that you add specific pick-up instructions to your order so that the driver will be aware of this. Although this is not a guarantee since it will depend on the pick-up volume and unforeseen delays in our driver's route, we will try our best to fulfill this for you.

You can get in touch with us through chat on our website should you need further assistance, Team: https://support.sendle.com/hc/en-au

We look forward to hearing from you.

Stay clear of this company at all costs. No support, no service, no contact details, parcels go missing or aren't scanned therefore your customers aren't about to track them. They use unreliable carriers in the likes of Fastaway

WORST COURIER EVER
April 25, 2022

The courier picked the order up 7 days past the scheduled pickup day if I could give this courier 0 stars or less i honestly would, I had been in contacted with them every missed day the order was not picked up morning and night, via there online chat, as a small business doing everything myself including working a full time job this was extremely unacceptable, I was told on multiple days it would be picked up that day which never happened. I will never use this courier again, I was very lucky the customer was a friend and was very understanding, for the situation.

Terrible
October 15, 2023

Terrible company. Terrible service. I have used them twice one package was lost for 20 days, and the other package I couldn't find a location to drop off and I live in Toronto. A massive city, their website is inaccurate for drop off locations that done exist and they're estimated delivery is so many days off. Do not use this company

Over two separate occasions I get the same results - poor service. I have instructed Sendle to pick up my parcel from my work address both times and they just don't seem to be able to do that! The parcel was left at the reception for more than a few days and the customer service people just don't seem to be able to get a courier service to come pick it up! The pick up address is straightforward and clear. Both times I had to send the parcel myself at Australia Post. The first time, I cancelled the Sendle job myself, and the second time, Sendle gave up and just told me that they will cancel the job and refund. This company is a sham.

Firstly they damaged the package in transit- I guess they were just throwing it from a decent height for the damage to have occurred. Then they did not even bother to contact me to notify me about the damage and what I wanted to do about it. Then they said they were not going to deliver it due to the damage even though I pled with them to still deliver it as I knew that most of the contents would still be ok. They declined and threw the package in the bin. I am disgusted with their "service"

All of my parcels that they lost were insured but not eligible for insurance. SendleCover says "We insure all packages up to $300 with one exception, being parcels under 250g". They then referred me to a clause in their T&C's that state they do not cover "legal documents and other such valuables". All of my parcels from video games to cassettes to apparel were considered valuable as they have value and so does every item so technically nothing is insured. I think it's pretty disgusting that they make it seem like the valuables they don't cover are valuables such as legal documents. But somehow legal documents and SUCH valuables may have absolutely nothing to do with legal documents? They then refused to give me an example of what is actually covered. Very illegal. I will be taking them to court. I recommend others to do so too. No reason why they should be allowed to run a scam.

Lost my parcel
December 15, 2020

Terrible tracking tool. Absolutely no information on where my item is other than a stupid animation of a truck delivering my package that is now 4days over the delivery estimate. The sender of my item has requested an investigation as to the whereabouts of the item but I have had no correspondence from Sendle so far.

Dreadful!
April 16, 2020

Took a week from the latest delivery estimate to actually get here. Dont understand how it took you so long to get it to the courier to actually deliver it. Just an all around dreadful first experience with Sendle, will be specifically asking anyone I buy things from not to use Sendle

Only suggestion
June 13, 2023

I absolutely love your service as a small business, but I'd love to have the ability to send more than one package to the same receiver as a single transaction. Makes it possible to include a packing slip and have a single tracking number for the total shipment.

Waiting fror an item from the Sunshine Coast to the Gold Coast, over ten days now... I could have walked there and back in that time.
I will in future ask what method is being used and will noit buy an item if Sendle is being used.
No idea yet when i will see the item. Their late delivery resolution service says it could take 5 days to get an answer, what a freaking joke. Australia Post is bad, but they are lot better than Sendle

Unreliable
March 16, 2023

Requested delivery on Valentine's Day (14/02) to a specific department where my wife works, dropped to wrong department a day late 15/02.
Tracking site & responding times woeful.
To avoid disappointment don't use Sendle (pronounced $#*!dle).

Hi Ash, thanks for your feedback. I can see that the parcel was delivered within the estimates of 10 Feb - 15 Feb, but I'm sorry to hear that it wasn't delivered directly to your wife's department. For deliveries in buildings/offices, the items can sometimes be left at the reception area. Nevertheless, we'll pass this feedback to our courier partner so we can improve our services moving forward.

If you live outside a major city shipping options get very limited. Having Sendle means I am not driving to a depot to ship my packages, and I pay far less than Canada Post rates. My customers are very happy with the speed of the service, and I am happy with the software and price.

The WORST
April 11, 2019

Do not use these guys ever! They delivered my package to the wrong address, they knew it was the wrong address and they left it there! Now they won't provide me a number to talk to them and won't take any responsibility and have told me to go and find the parcel myself. Absolutely disgusting service

They do not ring or call when they arrive, only left a redelivery card.
The process of the redelivery is terrible, never notify you when it has changed or invaid.

My parcel sent on 28 Dec, they promised 2 business day, and until 11th Jan I still haven't received the parcel.
I email them and they said my redelivery was invalid, what if I don't email them. My parcel will be forever invalid and I don't even know what was wrong. No email and call, no communication regarding the change, quite disappointed service.

And the customer service told me "To clear things up, the estimated delivery date is not a guaranteed/promise date." No empathy at all, playing the words around, very tricky company.

Although it stated the parcel will deliver the next 1-2 business day, please be aware the estimated delivery date is absolutely misleading because it could take double/triple time of " estimated delivery time".

My parcel in transit FOREVER...

They suck
May 18, 2021

Customer support answers in 2 business days... who has a business that can be on hold for 2 business day?

$1 shipping promo is a scam, doesnt update to $1, charging me full price, which is more than competitors.
